Action Update
Gary Fowler expressed concern about inconsistencies in the Holiday Parade
route map, stating he will be asking for a writ of mandamus regarding the closed
streets. He demanded a correct map and wanted to know why residents couldn't
park in the city lot on Nipomo and, further, if the Broad Street freeway off-ramp is
to be closed. Parks and Recreation Director LeSa_ge reported that the map that
went out to the residents is the official map for the 2003 parade. He also noted
that the ordinance allowing the street closures does allow for some minor
adjustments and responded to questions regarding the streets to be closed to the
public. CAO Hampian clarified that the map for 2003 was altered slightly because
of construction in the downtown.
Mary Beth Schroeder complained that a business is being conducted out of the
home at 2060 Wilding Lane. She also expressed concern about the School

the site of the old "Sunny Acres"juvenile home. The Mayor reported that the
Planning Commission will consider the second item on November 19th.
